' '
,: Is there a way to make a musical virtue of understated ecstasy? :,
: ThatÆs the question that Daphni, the dance music-minded alias of :
:' CaribouÆs Dan Snaith, seems to be asking. While his main outfit ':
,: has evolved from a post-rock project to a more :,
: electronically-inclined enterprise over the years, SnaithÆs work :
:' as Daphni has set its sights expressly toward the dancefloor, ':
,: with a particular allegiance to house music and its soulful :,
: variants in their most organic forms. :
:' ':
,: Like Four Tet, a close friend and collaborator who established :,
: himself as a dance music master only after loosening up slowly, :
:' over the course of several years, SnaithÆs earliest certifiable ':
,: ôclub musicö tracks had an uptightness and uprightness that have :,
: faded away. The result has been transformative, largely because :
:' the new songs exhibit a true ability to swingùto play around ':
,: more freely with syncopation and entertain genre expectations :,
: that can just as easily be upended. :
:' ':
,: Joli Mai is related to DaphniÆs recent DJ-mix release Fabriclive :,
: 93, for which Snaith created a new array of original tracks and :
:' edits to twist together into a tightly coiled sequence over an ':
,: extended 74-minute spell. Joli Mai presents tracks from that mix :,
: in longer versionsùplus the unreleased ôVulture,ö which has been :
:' passed around only by way of some of DaphniÆs DJ friends. The ':
,: other 11 tracks were conceived to serve their respective :,
: purposes in particular spots of the Fabriclive mix, meaning that :
:' changes in speed and tweaks in volume (and so on) were integral ':
,: to their duties as part of a mosaic whole. :,
: :
:' Those functional, purpose-minded aspects of the tracks are left ':
,: intact to thrilling effect on Joli Mai, so much so that a :,
: listener can practically hear Daphni thinking out loud about the :
:' subtle shifts and mutations a DJ considers over the course of a ':
,: set. ôPolyö opens with a swell of synth arpeggios and cooing :,
: vocal snips that build before ôFace to Faceö comes on strong :
:' with drums and a bassline pared down to its essence. ':
,: Adjustments in volume and dynamics abound over the course of :,
: five-plus minutes that grow funkier for all their little :
:' variations. ':
,: :,
: Other tracks fluctuate in weight, and swing between big drama :
:' (ôXing Tianö) and small, slice-of-life sentiment (ôLifeÆs What ':
,: You Make Itö). Each plays its own adopted role in a collection :,
: that designates Daphni as a dance music producer at the top of :
:' the field. ':
